Short on volunteers, not on fun

Regardless if it was your 17th or first Cheese Heritage Festival, we appreciate everyone who came to Wellington to have some “cheesy” fun. We were short about 60 volunteer shifts but everyone made it work. It would not have been possible without volunteers and the following people really helped the event run smoothly: Melissa and Tom Gregan, Joan Colleran, Harold Sumpter, Patti Young, Christina Jordan, Andy Arntz, Allison Zander, plus Rita Rollin, Eva Johnston, and Mike and Scott Hazlett, who lead our food booth operation.

We’re excited for 2018 as we assist the village with many bicentennial events including a home, business, and church tour. We’re also planning “Dog Days of Summer” for July 1 and “Fall in Love with Wellington” tentatively Sept. 29 and 30 next year. If you enjoy coordinating events and being involved, attend the promotions meetings on Tuesdays, Aug. 1 and Aug. 8 at 4 p.m. or call 440-647-3987.
